This place is a gorgeous facility but that is the best thing about it. I thought this place was boring. The upstairs was closed for remodeling, the movie in the first room was decent, the statues were gorgeous, but honestly we were all bored. I thought it needed more history or artifacts from ranches or something more! I wouldnt waste the money!

This place is pretty cool in person! We didn’t get to tour the museum but just checking out the statues outside, using the facilities and making a small donation of appreciation made this a nice mini-break of our road trip.

Visited on a Wednesday morning and two of us were the only patrons. I loved the history, old photos, artwork, and the various trophies on display. There is an amazing pedigree map inlay on the tile in the front exhibit hall. A small arena out back looks like it may host live demos or programs, although none were happening on the day we visited. A few of the interactive exhibits in the downstairs section were less than functional (touch screens not working, fruitless mouse clicks), and none of the upstairs movie displays were turned on (or working?). This museum would be even better if it had an interactive pedigree map to trace our own horses lineage on site.

Unfortunately when we stopped the museum was closed. But the life size statues outside were awesome! One day I’ll get to tour the museum with my family!

If you love quarter horses, this place has a for you.

Something I knew little about before the visit. Good short stop!

We arrived later than we thought we would. The staff were so friendly, helpful and nice. We didnt have long to view the exhibits, but they let us in regardless of the time. We did leave when they closed, just wish we had more time to view everything.

If you love horses this is a great place to get lost in.

Very comprehensive and has many exhibits with interactive stations. The art gallery is accessible and you can buy from the shop.

Sorry we missed visiting this incredible place during operating hours!

Downstairs is a lot more kids oriented, which was well done but I wasnt there with children. Upstairs, though, had an awesome several room, elaborate, timeline of horse influence in American history that I found fascinating. They tied in what was happening in mainstream culture at the time (loved all the Disney movie releases) so it wasnt just reading meaningless dates, and then showed the hoof-print quarter horses were making at the same time. Very cool.

Excellent. Clean facility with wonderful architecture, presents great information about key horses and people throughout history. 2 stories. Small gift shop.

Cant wait to visit again when we are in town. The art exhibit was lovely. Changing exhibits is a great idea for locals.

Lots of history, artifacts and the annual nominees to their wall of honor for members and horses. A great place to visit. Informative and interactive exhibits. Went as part of a veterans group from the Amarillo VA. Very enjoyable. I highly Recommend visiting the AQHA Museum.

This museum is part of the American Quarter Horse Association, whose headquarters are in Amarillo, so naturally theres a lot of neat stuff about quarter horses. A big part of the AQHA mission is to acquaint people with how versatile the breed is, from roping steers and herding cattle to pulling buggies to competing in hunter-jumper classes. Its a mission this museum totally achieves. But even if you arent a died-in-the-wool horse lover, there are a lot of fascinating exhibits. Horses played such a role in American history, from Paul Reveres ride to the opening of the west, and even in World War 1. A painless way to brush up on your U.S. history! Plus some of the exhibits, such as the parade saddles, are awesome for their artistry.

This was awesome, we spent hours and hours at this Museum learning all about the American Quarter Horse. It is located in Amarillo Texas. I am not what you would call a horse person but I do believe they are a beautiful animal and it was very interesting to learn about them.

Very informative and a reasonable price. Lots of interactive activities for children or even those lacking knowledge about horses and wishing to learn more.

We had some time to kill in Amarillo. Im not a horse person, so to me it wasnt very interesting. Id second what others have said - probably not worth the entrance price unless you have an interest in horses.

We are not horse or horse racing aficionados however we enjoyed the museum and Hall of Fame. Worth a stop if youre in the area.

Quite overwhelming and very interesting! Most recommendable

We enjoyed our trip to your museum today. Beautiful statues of all the Horses.

For the horse enthusiast, especially for the American Quarter Horse. Outstanding time line of the history of horses in America, tied to the history of the world. Interactive area is of special interest to youngsters. Very nice exhibit of western Art is usually on display. Don’t miss visiting this museum.

I enjoyed seeing the write-ups on all the Hall of Fame horses and horsemen and horsewomen, many of whom I was personally acquinted. Those that I was not familiar with, I was able to learn about. I have never been to a museum that I enjoyed as much. Thanks to the great people at the AQHA and the great horse men and women that have come before us.

This was a neat place to visit. We went when they had an open house and enjoyed it. Its not very big and I wouldnt set aside more than an hour to the tour. Its really not for young kids as the exhibits aimed at kids are few. I would say its a place to visit in the morning before you head out to do something else before lunch. To me, the prices are a little high for how big it is. We went during the open house and got in free. Not sure Id pay to do it any other time honestly.

This place just wowed me! There are many interactive displays that were just so much fun! The collection of memorabilia is AWESOME! Theres a great mosaic laid out on the floor of the geneology of the Quarter Horse,along with the owners and contributors and progeny of the most famous horses in American history. Some of the artworks are just so visually stunning you can look at them for hours and picture yourself on some high plain somewhere right along with the artist as he lays out his amazing view in microscopic detail. Final thought; LOVED IT!!!

Wonderful history, beautiful statues, awesome portraits, lots of great attractions inside to take your pictures on , very clean bathrooms, good gift shop. A Museum all need to see.

The place was nice but the admission was pricey.

I was first here on a childhood vacation. ,1967. As an adult, I am revisiting all our vacation sites. Having a blast. I love the.cawboy hall of fame and excited that it was even bigger and better now. So glad I did this.

This was a great experience. The only thing missing was a live horse.

I LVED IT ! JOZY~

Its a beautiful museum with very friendly people. Quarter horses are amazing animals.

Great exhibits! Very interesting for those of us in the horse business.

While I do not own a horse it was interesting to see how quarter horses were started as a breed. It was nice to learn some of the things that you have to do to take care of a horse and to see what different tack looks like from different people around the world

Loved the museum, first time going and will go again.

As a horse lover I was so happy to go!!! Its neat to see the history of the quarter horse. They did have exhibits for kids but there is lots of reading... It made it difficult for me to really enjoy it with 2 small children. Id go again though! Maybe this time without kids or wait until they are older...

Nice little museum. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Great place, great to see the history and lineage of great horse breads... and to think the across the street is where they actually do all the paperwork for every quarter horse sold and bread...

Closed because of a private event. Should have posted on their web site of the event so people dont waste their time!

Nice place for some history on horses

So much interesting stuff. Nice environment

It was clean, cool atmosphere, but the theater was closed, and didnt have nothing as far as a gift shop

Beautiful museum but, unless you are into horses, its not all that interesting. The short film is worth seeing. Gift shop is tiny. Exhibits are largely tributes to people most of us have never heard of whose impact is limited to the world of quarterhorses. Not worth the small admission price unless you have an interest in horses.

The museum is nice to go look around and learn about the quarter horse history. Sucks they got rid of gift shop.

What a fabulous place the AQHA offices and museum have grown into.

Didnt have ask much stuff as we thought but was still nice to walk though it. Only took about half hour.

Unless you are an owner, breeder or uber enthusiast, this will probably not interest you. They do have a small, but well designed area for small children with a talking horse. Mostly it is homage to past quarter horses. A lot of photos and trophies. However, I have heard the outside demonstrations are good, if you are there at the right time.

Wasn’t exactly what we thought but provides a very in-depth history of quarter horse world. If you are into that history you don’t wanna miss this place.

Luv dem horses up en der! Theys got a reel nice deesplay and words abouts horses

Great place to view information and history in Amarillo.

It was an interesting place to visit. If you follow race horses, the people who rode them and blood lines, you will like this museum. A lot of history.

Beautiful architecture inside and out, though the museum exhibits will likely be smaller than you expect from a look at the outside of the building. Museum mostly geared to children downstairs with a more mature history of the association and quarter horse racing upstairs. I had more fun downstairs than upstairs, the conversations between Doc and Two Bits - caricatures of a veterinarian and a horse - were entertaining. Gift shop was well stocked but we felt many items were overpriced. Given the opulence of the building it didnt look like AQHA was hurting for money and we were reluctant to buy expensive sweatshirts as a result. Free/reduced admission for military and veterans.

It was a nice place, but I think it was more for folks unfamiliar with quarter horses.

Great history wonderful time to spend a few

Very educational. I loved it...

An interesting introduction to quarter horse history. A beautiful museum.

I love going there, to learn about the history of the American Quarter Horse. Just very disappointed that they are moving it to Fort worth Tx.

Such a neat collection of history and horses

Wanted to buy T-Shirts, but they only had a few, and all were small or medium... not much of a selection.

Dope! So different from when I was a kid.

Got to learn a bunch of new information great place would love to go visit again

Very interesting, even for someone whos not that into horses!

Even a casual horse person will enjoy. Serious folks will want to spend more than one day

Very interesting if u own quarter horses and r a fanatic like me!!

Loved it! A full day event.

Nice for horse lovers. Very educational.

GREAT place lots of history
